PPT-Basic Properties of the Atmosphere

Essential Points Heat Temperature and Temperature Scales The Electromagnetic Spectrum Composition of the Atmosphere Layers in the atmosphere are defined by temperature profiles How pressure varies in the atmosphere. Controlled atmosphere storage refers to the constant monitoring an d adjustment of the CO and O levels within gas tight stores or containers The gas mixture will constantly change due to metabolic activity of the respiring fruits and vegetables in t the Earth on solar EUV observations from LEO satellites .
